I trained in Metacognitive (MCT) Therapy with Pia Callensen, author of 'Live More Think Less'. MCT is an evidence-based psychological therapy developed by Professor Adrian Wells. MCT is based on a simple but powerful idea, It’s not the presence of negative thoughts that keeps us stuck, it’s how we respond to them. Rather than analysing the content of thoughts, MCT focuses on changing the thinking patterns that maintain distress, such as , Persistent worry, Rumination , Overthinking and attempts to control our thoughts. It is very effective in treating depression, anxiety & other mental health issues with recovery rates of over 70%

I like to meet potential clients face-to-face at the beginning to have an exploratory chat and to see if they would like working with me. If so, I'm interested in listening and to really understand what challenges they are encountering. I love working with people to assist them along their life’s journey, whether it is managing their issues or finding greater purpose and meaning. I use my life experiences and my intuition to see what works best for them.

It is hard to describe what psychotherapy is really like. One of us, Jonathan Shedler describes it well.
"We are changing life patterns. There is no path from Point A to Point B that does not traverse the unknown
Real transformation occurs when patient and therapist can enter and embrace that unknown
Perhaps it is like ancient sailors setting out to sea in search of a new and distant land—but uncertain how far they might have to travel before they once again set foot on solid earth, or what they might find when they get there"
There is no substitute for meeting face to face though. And proceeding or not from there.

Bereavement Counsellors
How long does therapy take for grief?
There is no exact timeline for grief counseling. Some people may start to feel better after just a few sessions, while others may take months or longer to feel relief. Some specific approaches, including some types of CBT, may involve a set number of sessions, or therapy may be open-ended until the patient determines they are ready to wrap up. Just as there is no right or wrong way to grieve, there is no right or wrong way to seek therapy for grief.
When should you seek therapy for grief?
Many people mistakenly believe that their grief needs to be debilitating or all-encompassing to warrant therapy. This is not the case. While people who experience severe, prolonged grief—particularly those who are considering self-harm or engaging in unhealthy substance use—are especially likely to benefit from therapy, so too are people whose grief is less intense but still interfering with well-being or daily functioning. In practice, almost anyone struggling to process a loss could benefit from grief counseling.
Can grief be managed without therapy?
Oftentimes, yes. Grief is a near-universal part of being human, and many find that their grief, while profound, does not stop them from participating in day-to-day life and steadily eases over time without outside help. For others, however, the harsh pain of early grief persists for months or years or leaves them unable to function. This group is especially likely to benefit from seeing a therapist, who can guide them through their grief and help them reconnect with the world.
What happens if grief is left untreated?
Because grief does not in itself necessitate therapy, untreated grief will often resolve on its own. However, for some people—particularly those who would qualify for a diagnosis of prolonged grief disorder—untreated grief can be a source of seemingly endless pain or lead them to withdraw from the world. In such cases, treatment can be indispensable, as it can help an individual adapt to the loss and start living again.
